Sleep and Brainwashing (the good kind)

Today we’re going to talk about the good type of brain washing (yes, there is such a thing)! This process occurs while we sleep. As our bodies rest and relax, our brains are still as busy as a hive of bees, cleansing away the toxins accumulated from metabolic activity during the day - hence the term “brainwashing”. A good night’s rest facilitates that nightly brainwash, which prevents disease and slows down the brain’s aging process.
